Question

Can I take a HPT in the evening?

I took an Equate HPT this morning and it appears to be a very faint positive. I took a Dollar Store Test about an hour later and it came back negative. I am only 11 DPO but of course want to confirm if I am in fact pregnant! In efforts of not completely wasting money, is taking a Clear Blue test this evening worth while, or should I wait to take it in the morning?

You could if you held your urine for 4 hours (no drinking during that time). The reason(probably) the dollar store test was negative was because you're urine want concentrated enough.

All of my tests were done in the evening with not very long of a hold. I got a positive on an equate brand 9 DPO but I didn't get a positive on a clear blue digital until 11 DPO. It's defintely possible but I know everyone is different.

I would hold off until tomorrow morning, maybe even tomorrow night if possible. That way you have the most accurate chance of getting a correct answer. I got a faint BFP on a FRER on FMU at 11DPO, and the next morning got a strong BFP on the same brand.

Best of luck!

I was 11 dpo with my daughter when I got a faint positive on a dollar store test in the morning. That afternoon I got a faint positive on a first response. I wanted to way the progression of my line darkening but only those brands showed positive for several day.
